Miguel Cotto: “All I have to say is I’ve been here for the past two days and I’m eager to get back to Los Angeles and get into another training session and get back to New York on June 6. All I have to worry about is my mindset during the fight. I know Daniel is a great fighter and I’m going to do my best as always to bring a good and exciting fight to all the fans.

Daniel Geale: “I’m as excited as you can ever imagine. This is a great moment for me. Și vin Iunie 6, it’s going to be a hell of a fight and I can’t wait to walk away with the titles.”

 

Michael Yormark, Președintele & Chief of Branding and Strategy of Roc Nation: “Today is a historic day for Roc Nation and our boxing division. Muhammed Ali once said ‘he who is not courageous enough to take risks will accomplish nothing in life.’ At Roc Nation, we decided to launch our boxing division in August of 2014. We knew we were taking a risk. We knew that we were entering a sport that was established with a long history in a deep-rooted culture. It took courage, but frankly Roc Nation is nothing if not courageous…we’re committed to promoting the biggest fights and the biggest fighters. Now just a few short months later, we stand here with one of the best fighters in the world, announcing a world championship bout inside the new mecca of boxing, Barclays Center, and broadcast on the standard bearer for live boxing telecasts, HBO. It took courage and risk to get here but this is a proud moment for all of us.”

 

Hector Soto, Miguel Cotto Promoții: “Miguel Cotto is back and he’s in his second home in New York. As everyone knows, it’s been a tradition for the past couple of years that Miguel fights on the eve of the Puerto Rican Day Parade, so it’s an honor to fight during that time again. Pe Iunie 6, Miguel Cotto will defend his Middleweight WBC Championship against a tough opponent, Daniel Geale. Have no doubt, it will be a great fight at Barclays Center and everyone will enjoy the fight especially the Puerto Ricans. Miguel Cotto will be ready, will train as hard as always and be ready for the challenge Daniel Geale brings.”

 

Gary Shaw, Gary Shaw Productions: “If you look at Daniel’s fight against Sturm, when we went to Germany and lifted the belt and became the world champion, that’s the Daniel Geale you’re going to see on Iunie 6. Vei vedea o luptă grozavă. Miguel Cotto is a great fighter. Daniel understands that and we have a great deal of respect for him, dar pe Iunie 6on HBO at Barclays Center, it will be a whole new night. It will be a night when Daniel Geale takes the belt back to Australia.”

 

Brett Yormark, CEO of Barclays Center and the Brooklyn Nets: “Boxing is a big part of what we do at Barclays Center. We’re very passionate about it and very deeply committed.

Floyd Mayweather & Manny Pacquiao Piața Off
Într-un alt Showdown Classic

În Divizia semimijlocie

LAS VEGAS (Aprilie 20, 2015) — Acesta a fost de multe ori a spus că “ca divizia grea merge, așa merge box,” dar care nu a fost întotdeauna cazul și, de fapt, nu ar putea fi chiar valabilă când este privit dintr-o perspectivă globală datând de la sfârșitul 19lea secol. În Box, Epic autor german Bertram Iov, 420-Pagina disertație de cafea-masă la toate aspectele legate de stiinta dulce, el scrie că, “Elegance este marca de stele Slim și agile în cadrul 147 de lire sterline clasa de greutate, care a atras insideri și admiratori de frumusete ca nimeni altul.”

 

Și așa este și cu ceea ce va fi o altă intrare de referință în istoria bogată a diviziei atunci când, peMai 2 la MGM Grand din Las Vegas, live pe pay-per-view, campion semimijlocie Floyd “Bani” Mayweather (47-0, 26 KO) ia pe colegi titlist Manny “Pacman” Pacquiao(57-5-2, 38 KO) într-o confruntare unificare anticipat lung, care va fi cel mai bogat prizefight din istoria sportului, și care a atras comparații la unele dintre premierului matchups într-o clasă de greutate imprimat cu care marca elegant la care se face referire Job.

 

Deși Pacquiao, singurul luptator care a câștigat Campionatele Mondiale de la opt categorii de greutate, și Mayweather, care a domnit în cinci clase de greutate, nu au militat exclusiv sau chiar cea mai mare parte ca welterweights, este greu o surpriză că cel mai important intersecția carierei lor remarcabile vine în aceeași divizia pentru care atât de mulți dintre cei mai mari legende box sunt în primul rând cunoscute.

 

The “Standarde de aur” la care toate welterweights aspiră rămâne târziu, Sugar Ray Robinson mare. Nascut Walker Smith Jr., copilul slab care nu au luptat într-un meci sancționat la orice nivel a fost o etichetă, împreună cu antrenorul George Gainford la un turneu de amatori în Kingston, N.Y.. Întrebat dacă el a avut o muscă ar fi dorit să intre, Gainford a fost pe cale de a spune nu, atunci când Smith trase pe mânecă și a spus, “Voi lupta.” După cum sa dovedit, Gainford avut un card de AAU – ai nevoie de unul pentru a fi certificate ca un non-profesionale – în numele Ray Robinson, unul dintre boxeri care au renunțat la sport. Smith / Robinson a câștigat o decizie de patru rotund, și, deși nimeni nu știa atunci, astfel sa născut o legendă.

 

Robinson a fost 85-0 ca un amator înainte de a porni la pro 19 în 1940. De 1951, a fost 128-1-2 cu 84 victorii knockout. Deși el este, de asemenea, amintit pentru castigarea titlului mijlocie de cinci ori, Robinson nu a pierdut nici un semimijlocie ca, câștigătoare atât de des și atât de categoric încât formatorul legendarul, Eddie Futch, a fost mutat pentru a observa că, “El a avut tot. Abilități de box, putere stantare, un mare chin, puterea mentală. Nu a fost nimic nu putea face.”

 

Robinson a avut, de asemenea, un ego supradimensionat, care, probabil, este o componentă necesară pentru machiaj mentală orice mare luptător lui. Chiar și o urmă de îndoială în capacitatea cuiva nu este propice pentru succesul în ring. Dată, când a fost întrebat despre lui “joc de golf,” Muhammad Ali, care nu au jucat golf, răspuns, “Sunt cel mai bun, cel mai mare de pe toți. Doar că nu am jucat încă.”

 

Mayweather aduce cu siguranță că aura de invincibilitate a operei sale, și poate nu doar pentru că el nu a fost încă să-și piardă ca un profesionist. În 2013, el a spus, “Bineînțeles că simt imbatabil. Sunt cel mai bun. Nu merg în orice luptă imaginind că sunt beatable. Vreau sa fac o moștenire pentru mine ca cel mai mare luptător care a intrat vreodată inelul.”

 

Pacquiao, în timp ce, probabil, nu la fel de detaliată, nu este mai puțin sigură în propriul sistem sa credinta. Este aceste măsuri cu varf de talent și fanfaronadă care fac Mayweather vs. Pacquiao un trebuie să-vedea eveniment. Care dintre aceste luptători restante pot face alte supune voinței lui? Care va fi numele lui scris in print mai mare în cartea mare a welterweights?

 

Boxing Hall of Fame International a inaugurat 23 luptători care au fost, la un moment dat sau altul, campioni semimijlocie. În plus față de Robinson, cei ale căror placi harul sala sfințit includ Ray Leonard Sugar, Roberto Duran, Thomas Hearns, Oscar De La Hoya, Felix Trinidad, Julio Cesar Chavez, Pernell Whitaker, Carmen Basilio, Henry Armstrong, Emile Griffith, Pipino Cuevas, Jose Napoles, Curtis Cola, Barney Ross, Kid Gavilan, Wilfred Benitez, Luis Rodriguez, Mickey Walker, Fritzie Zivic, Jack Britton, Jackie Fields, Ted “Copil” Lewis și “Misterios” Billy Smith. Mayweather și Pacquiao sunt, desigur, asigurate de aderare rândurile lor, de îndată ce acestea devin eligibile pentru a merge pe buletinul de vot.

 

Plumb-up pentru Mayweather vs. Pacquiao a generat nici o penurie de comparații la ciocniri semimijlocie trecut, care sunt notabile pentru natura clasic al acestor crize, raspandita insotitor de interes public pentru a le, sau amândouă.

 

Este Mayweather vs. Pacquiao mai susceptibile de a fi o repetare a, spune, Leonard-Duran I, care Duran a câștigat pe o decizie unanimă vibrant iunie 25, 1980, în Montreal? Epic Leonard-Hearns I, Sept. 16, 1981, care a văzut Leonard, Conduși pe scorecard, raliu pentru o dramatică, 14lea-TKO runda la Caesars Palace? Decizie majoritară controversată Trinidad pe deasupra De La Hoya in septembrie lor. 18, 1999, unificare showdown la Mandalay Bay? Sau va face propria marcă, astfel încât distinctiv care nu pot sau comparații ar trebui elaborate?

 

Când vine vorba de crize semimijlocie de neuitat, de acum ar trebui să fie evident că nimic și totul este posibil. Mayweather și Pacquiao va face istorie, și se adaugă la aceasta, prin încercarea de a se aplece destin fiecare la propria lor scop.

VERONA, NEW YORK (Aprilie 18) -Turning Stone Resort Casino in Verona, New York was treated to a historic sold out match-up between two of the most exciting gladiators in boxing as Lucas “La Maqina”” Matthysse (37-3, 34 Lui KO) took a majority decision victory over “Rocky siberian” Ruslan Provodnikov (24-4, 17 Lui KO) in a 12-round junior welterweight bout on the split-site doubleheader on HBO Boxing After Dark ®.

Prezentat de Promoții Banner și Promoții băiatul de aur, & Arano Box Promoții the action packed night showcased two athletes fighting in the prime of their careers, with a title shot in the 140-pound division likely hanging in the horizon.

Provodnikov was cut badly in round two from an accidental headbutt. Matthysse targeted the eye but Provodnikov walked through every shot. Provodnikov came back later in the round with some solid combinations and landed some furious shots to Matthysse’s head. Matthysse had a nice bounce back round five as he landed some hard jabs to the face of an oncoming Provodnikov.

The war continued through the middle rounds as both fighters went toe to toe while Matthysse landed combinations from distance and Provodnikov went on the offensive and continued to brawl. Provodikov had a strong round eleven as he landed a hard left to the top of the head that buckled Matthysse and the Argentinian was forced to hold on. The two waged a final flurry in round twelve and it was Matthysse the former WBC champion won via majority decision with scores of 115-113 de două ori și 114-114.

“I think I dominated the fight, I knew I had the best hits,” Sa'id Lucas Matthysse. “Ruslan is a tough fighter, he took everything I threw at him. Am o mulțime de respect pentru el. There was a point when I thought that they would stop the fight because of Ruslan’s cut, but his team was able to control it. I hurt my hand in the sixth round, but I kept going because I wanted to prove that I am the best in the division and that I am ready for the toughest fighters. I want to move forward and fight the winner of Mayweather-Pacquiao.”

“He is the hardest puncher I have ever fought but I fight as hard as I can to the very end,” Said Provodnikov. “I never want the fight stopped. The only time would be when I am on my back.”

Going on before the live split-site HBO Boxing After Dark doubleheader, Patrick Teixeira(25-0, 21 KO) of Santa Catarina, Brazil faced off against Accra, Georgia’s Patrick Allotey (30-2, 24 KO) in a scheduled 10-round middleweight bout. Both fighters came at each other aggressively in the first round in an exciting exchange of hard punches. Teixeria put an end to the fight in the second round as he delivered a devastating blow to Allotey’s body knocking him down to win the fight via knockout.

“I am very happy and feel emotional about my first fight with Golden Boy Promotions,” a spus Patrick Teixeira. “I wanted to make sure I impressed them in my first fight, so I trained very hard to make sure I went the full 10 rotund. But I am very excited I got the knockout.”

Vitaly Kopylenko (25-1, 14 Lui KO) won an eight round unanimous decision over Lekan Byfield (6-8-2, 1 KO) într-un meci mijlocie. Kopylenko knocked down Byfield twice on punches that staggered the Atlanta native into the ropes. Kopylenko cruise down the stretch of the fight to win via unanimous decision with a score of 79-72.

“I hurt my shoulder in the first round but I was able to gut it out and land some good shots,” said Kopylenko.

Washington, D.C standout, Lamont Roach Jr. (7-0, 3KO) faced Carolina, Puerto Rico Jose Miguel Castro (4-3, 2 KO) in a scheduled six-round lightweight bout. Roach dominated the fight early on, winning the bout by unanimous decision.

“It was my first six-rounder,” said Lamont Roach Jr. “I think that I could have knocked him down or made him quit if I would have hit him harder in the beginning but I trained for six round and wanted to make sure I could go the distance. I did want the knockout towards the end, but I didn’t get it.”

Vitor Jones De Oliveira (9-0, 5 Lui KO) won a six round unanimous decision over Guillermo Sanchez (15-14-1, 6 KO) într-un meci ușor. De Oiveira boxed well from the outside and countered the southpaw Sanchez nice and came home with the victory by scores of 59-55 și 58-56 de două ori.

“A fost o luptă bună. It took me a few rounds to get going but I am very happy with my performance and looking forward to my next fight,” said De Oliveira.

Eddie “E-Boy” Gomez (18-1, 11 KO) de Bronx, New York started the night with a technical knockout victory over Jonathan Batista (14-6, 7 KO) of San Pedro de Marcos, Republica Dominicană, when Batista could not answer the bell to start round six in their scheduled 10-round super welterweight bout.

“Mă simt bine, I’m satisfied with the win, but I wanted to show more,” said Eddie Gomez. “I was just getting warmed up, showing my boxing and foot work skills to prove I was ready for the 12-round championship fights.”

Sidney McCow scored a first round technical knockout over Paulo Souza in a scheduled four round welterweight. McCow (3-2, 2 Lui KO) de New York, NY pummeled Souza until the bout was stopped at 2:55 de o rundă. Souza of Somerville, Massachusetts este acum 0-8.

Will Mayweather vs. Pacquiao Live up to the Hype?

Lasă un comentariu

De: Bogat Bergeron

Floyd “Bani” Mayweather Jr. (47-0, 26 KO) and Manny “Pac Man” Pacquiao (57-5-2, 38 KO) are set to clash on May 2nd, 2015 in one of the most hyped fights in boxing history. This fight is so huge they are even planning to sell tickets to the weigh-in due to crowd control issues. The proceeds will not be going to the promoters or the boxers, deși. It all goes to charity. Încă, this is a first for the state of Nevada, which traditionally requires that all weigh-ins be free of charge for fans to attend.

The level of anticipation surrounding this fight had a long time to build up. For the better part of the last decade, these two pound-for-pound juggernauts could not make this fight happen for one ridiculous reason after another. As someone who personally attended some of Mayweather’s public workouts in Vegas, I can attest to the fact that the undefeated welterweight champion repeatedly and relentlessly cited Pacquiao’s refusal to undergo Olympic style blood testing when asked about the attempts being made to get this fight signed over five years ago.

Mayweather even came up with a little rap lyric to express the issue in simple terms:

“If you wanna fight the best, you gotta take the test,” he belted out during a sit-up session at one of those open workouts.

Pacquiao changed his tune on the testing and overcame the biggest hurdle of all when he met personally with Mayweather and agreed that he would be the “B” side and should therefore get a smaller split of the purse. As the video above outlines, Mayweather was then able to dominate the negotiation process.

Although pundits still say this fight will be the biggest in the history of the sport, the question must be asked if this pairing is happening too late in the careers of both fighters for it to be as exciting as some experts predict it will be.

It was always clear to me this fight would happen, but it became obvious that the longer it took to sign the contracts, the better Floyd’s chances of winning would be. Încă, Floyd did admit in 2012 că the real reason he didn’t want to fight Pacquiao was due to health concerns. He denied being scared, calling himself “smart” for thinking about his family and his health first. Încă, he insisted that the main reason his health would be at risk in that fight was if Pacquiao was really doing steroids, as Mayweather alleged and ended up being sued over. The two settled out of court and the fight is now imminent, so some fans think it’s all water under the bridge. Others are just plain aggravated that we had to wait this long for this bout to come to fruition.

Boxing Legend Marvin Hagler even commented recently that Mayweather waited until Pacquiao aged a little more before signing to fight him. Hagler compared Mayweather’s tactics to Sugar Ray Leonard waiting until Hagler became a little “soft” himself before they signed their fight contract. That bout turned out to be hugely controversial and left Hagler extremely bitter about the sport that made him famous.

Așa, the May-Pac fight will happen, and Mayweather is the obvious favorite. To learn more about the gambling side of this story, verifică Boxing betting at William Hill site. The biggest payoff for any lucky bettor will be a successful bet on Pacquiao, but it’s easy to wonder if Pacquiao really is too old to win this time out. Dupa toate acestea, there are tons of concerns with Manny’s calf muscles seizing up, and he reportedly uses a healing cream that costs thousands of dollars per bottle to address the problem.

Mayweather (38) is actually the older fighter, but the 36-year-old Manny’s fought 17 more bouts in the pro ranks and will likely be the most active puncher “Bani” ever faced. Mayweather’s normally spectacular and overwhelming defensive prowess just might be tested.

This fight may not be worth every penny you spend on tickets or the Pay-Per-View feed, but the fact that it is finally happening is still special. It will still be a fight boxing fans everywhere around the world can enjoy and appreciate. It’s ultimately up to the fighters to prove they are both up to the task of making sure this fight lives up to expectations. Chances are, Floyd will do his best to leave the MGM Grand with an uneventful decision win. Let’s just hope Pacquiao has enough left in the tank to make sure this is the most competitive fight Mayweather’s ever been in. It may not be the most opportune time for this fight to happen, but it’s a lot better to get it late than never.

Manny Pacquiao, Opt Divizia campion mondial

 

“Mă simt foarte incantati de lupta.

 

“Am o mulțime de parteneri de sparring care sunt similare cu stil de luptă Floyd, am făcut bine. Știm ce sa se astepte.

 

“Am privit banda pe Floyd să vă asigurați că strategia noastră și tehnică în cantonament este corectă.

 

“Întreaga mea cariera definește moștenirea mea; Am realizat deja marile realizări în cariera mea în timp ce exceland in diferite divizii de greutate. Această luptă este o realizare suplimentar în cariera mea; e cea mai mare lupta din istoria boxului.

 

“Pot spune că bate Floyd ar fi cea mai mare victorie din cariera mea.

 

“Mai multe persoane sunt interesate și în cunoștință de cauză cu privire la această luptă acum decât ar fi fost acum cinci ani.

 

“Stil înțelept, Sunt același luptător am fost acum cinci ani. Determinarea mea, inspirație și criminal instinct este exact aceeași ca a fost acum cinci sau șase ani.

 

“Pentru mine, box este pasiunea mea. Îmi place box și dând cinste țării mele din Filipine. Preocuparea mea este de a aduce o luptă interesantă pentru fanii mei. Prima mea preocupare a intra în fiecare lupta este cum va fi să se poată distra fanii mei, să le dea bucurie și a le face fericit.

 

“Motivul pentru care am atât de iubit de fani este din cauza stilului meu nesăbuit de luptă. Oameni ca lupte incitante cu pumni reale aruncate.”

 

BOB ARUM, Top Rank CEO

 

“Manny este motivată, el este gata de luptă. Mă aștept o mare performanță de la el.

 

“Este o lupta foarte interesant pentru că Floyd este un specialist defensivă care are o dreaptă bun și alege pe adversarii săi. E un luptător extraordinar de bun.

 

“Puterea Pacquiao este viteza, în special viteza piciorul și faptul că el aruncă atât de multe pumni și atacuri din unghiuri mici. Chiar lovește mai tare decât Floyd face, astfel încât într-adevăr ceea ce va fi cu privire la.

 

“Floyd are o apărare diferită de Juan Manuel Marquez. Apărarea lui este în primul rând rola lui umăr. O mulțime de apărarea este orientată împotriva unui luptător dreptaci. Cu care a spus, Cred că Manny va surprinde o mulțime de oameni cu modul în care el va fi capabil să ajungă la Floyd.

 

“Aș spune Manny este mai motivat pentru această luptă decât orice altă luptă L-am văzut pregăti pentru.

 

“Aștept cu nerăbdare să Mai 2. Îmi place șansele lui Manny de a câștiga, asta e cel mai important lucru. El arată foarte bine, el motivat, nu prostii, și cred că va pune pe un spectacol pentru vârstele. Va fi greu pentru el la început performanța împotriva Oscar De La Hoya, dar cred că va fi, în această luptă.”


FREDDIE ROACH, Sala Pacquiao a of Fame Trainer

 

“Avem o idee mare de când și în cazul în care vom ataca Mayweather.

 

“Această luptă a fost de cinci ani în efectuarea. Promotorii ar trebui să înțeleagă faptul că aceste tipuri de lupte sunt ceea ce cele mai bune pentru box și ar trebui să avem mai multe lupte de acest gen. Nu mă surprins de hype din jurul luptei.

 

“Manny a ridicat într-adevăr bara în acest cantonament. E un alt Manny Pacquiao decât l-am văzut a intra în tabere de antrenament anterioare. El este atât de perforare mult mai greu în formarea pentru această tabără.

 

“Manny este mai bine ca niciodata, atitudinea lui este diferit și n-am văzut de lucru acest greu. Viteza lui este mai rapid, pumni sale sunt mai greu. Sunt foarte fericit unde e. Picioarele lui arata foarte bine; e pe degetele de la picioare tot timpul.

 

“Mayweather este un bun contra-puncher, dar Manny are mâini mai rapide și combinațiile sale sunt mai bune decât lui Floyd.

 

“Ambele luptatori au o mare experienta, așa că nu cred că va fi un factor în lupta. Cel mai mare lucru este că fiecare luptător vine cu un stil diferit. Floyd este un contra-puncher, dar Manny trebuie să fie cel de a pune în aplicare lupta.

 

“Eu cred că Manny fi un stangaci va fi un factor în această luptă. Manny mi-a arătat banda de Floyd lupta într-un stangaci și mi-a spus că este exact ceea ce vom face în această luptă.

 

“Pot să spun cât de mult această luptă înseamnă a Manny că el a urmărit pe bandă Floyd. Manny nu a urmarit bandă pe orice luptator înainte.

 

“Deoarece Manny sa mutat la 147 el nu a batut multe tipi, astfel obtinerea de knock-out în această luptă nu este un motiv de îngrijorare pentru mine. Dacă Manny lupte la 140, atunci el nu bate tipi, dar la această greutate el se luptă tipi care sunt mai mari decât el.

 

“Floyd poate fi un tip mai mare, dar vom câștiga în continuare lupta.

 

“Această luptă este mult mai mare decât atunci când Manny luptat Oscar De La Hoya. Manny este o persoană diferită a intra în această luptă. El ma lovit atât de tare de altă zi în care eu cred că este cel mai greu Am fost lovit vreodată de un luptator care eu sunt de formare.

 

“Nu cred că Floyd dorit vreodată această luptă, el a fost nevoit să-l ia de către public și mass-media. Nu aș fi surprins dacă Floyd scos acum.”
